The Columbia River: Wallula to the Sea featuring works by Thomas Jefferson Kitts and Erik Sandgren 

The Columbia River is a significant feature in the regional landscape. It is a companion for those who travel east and west between Astoria, Portland, and the mouth of the Snake River, and it is a destination for countless fishermen, water sports aficionados, and outdoor enthusiasts. The Columbia River: Wallula to the Sea is being organized to celebrate the active and diverse ways in which humans have interacted with the river, its beauty, and its bounty. The interpretive goal of the display is to provide the public with an opportunity to reflect on the many facets of the river’s identity and to visually chronicle some of the human behaviors that shape its daily life—past and present. Within these parameters, we encourage visitors to think critically about the diverse—and sometimes competing—economic enterprises at the forefront of the exhibition. 

Approximately 70 historic and contemporary paintings and photographs showing Middle and Lower Columbia River landscapes, peoples, ideas, and structures are on display, among them 20 works commissioned by prominent Portland-area artists Thomas Jefferson Kitts and Erik Sandgren. The exhibition also contains select examples of regional material culture by Indigenous artists. The works are drawn from the museum’s permanent collection and borrowed from public collections, private collectors, and local artists.  

North Wasco County School District (NWCSD) has partnered Public Consulting Group (PCG) to conduct a Community Engagement Assessment. The goal of this assessment is to understand how families and the community are currently involved with our schools and to identify ways to strengthen these connections. By gathering input from parents, caregivers, and community members, we will develop recommendations to help the district improve communication, involvement, and overall engagement with families and the community. 

PCG is conducting focus groups and a survey, and we invite you to participate. Your input is valuable and will help us better serve the North Wasco Community!

FOCUS GROUPS: Business and CTE Partner focus group(s) will be held on Tuesday, October 8 · 9:30 - 10:30am at The Dalles Middle School.  

You can Sign-Up Here.  Once you sign up, you will receive a calendar invite that will include additional information about the focus group details. 
 
SURVEY: PCG is also facilitating a district-wide survey which will launch next week. The purpose of the survey is to gather feedback from families and the community.

The Rocky Mountain-based band’s stories and songs rise from the very land they’ve protected as Canadian national park wardens. With haunting three-part harmonies and chilling tales, the band’s mountain music - blending folk, roots and western styles – reflects Canada's protected wilderness areas. Celebrating the return of wild buffalo, wrangling grizzly bears, lonely nights on the packtrail and reflecting on an environment in crisis, a performance by The Wardens has been dubbed “the quintessential mountain-culture concert experience."
